this book gave me what i needed. an easy-to-read, mysterious, funny, romantic book filled with plot-twists. was it the best book i’ve ever read? no, but it was enjoyable. i really enjoyed all the secrets the hawthorne house had to offer, with hidden passages and symbols around every corner. it fufilled my childhood dream of having a house with a secret tunnel to each room. what captivated me the most was probably the romantic side plots and constant indecisiveness about which brother i wanted avery to end up with. i think the author did this well without losing the plot throughout the book. i’m very excited to start the second book of the series ‘the hawthorne legacy’ after reading the teaser of the first 3 chapters in the inheritance games. this book is good if you’re wanting to get out of a reading slump or to indulge in the billionaire lifestyle on the side.overall, i’ve given this book a 3.75 star rating as i felt that it didn’t really stand out to me or connect with me enough to rate it any higher.
